Ingredients
~150g plain yogurt or Greek yogurt
1 heaping scoop of vanilla whey isolate, Schinoussa is my fave
~1 tbsp water, filtered
¼ tsp stevia, to taste
Toppings of choice, see Notes
Notes
Toppings - Cacao nibs, dark chocolate chips, toasted coconut, raspberries, strawberries, chopped walnuts, almonds or pecans, toasted pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, ground flaxseed - anything goes!
Too thin or too thick? - Use less or no water to make it thicker & more water to thin it out.
Can’t do dairy? - Swap the dairy yogurt for coconut milk yogurt & the whey isolate for beef protein powder. My go-to’s are Riviera Coconut Milk Yogurt & ATP Labs Supreme Beef Protein. Beef protein powder creates a ‘thickening’ effect, so if you don’t want a thick yogurt bowl, I recommend either adding it immediately before eating or use more water to create the consistency you want.
Make it Lemon Vanilla - Use Now Food’s Better Stevia Lemon Twist instead of regular stevia powder. Just a couple of drops or more to taste. If you are feeling extra ambitious, some grated lemon rind or a tiny bit of lemon juice would work great with this.
